SAIL Bokaro Develops New Electrical Steel Grade

Steel Authority of India Limited (SAIL) has announced that its Bokaro Steel Plant (BSL) has developed a special grade of electrical steel for the first time, marking a significant milestone in the company’s efforts to expand its portfolio of high-value and advanced steel products.

The newly developed steel is designed for use in electric motors, generators, small power transformers, electrical appliances, and rotors for hybrid and electric vehicles, contributing to enhanced energy efficiency and supporting India’s growing green mobility and energy infrastructure sectors.

In a statement, SAIL said, “The Bokaro Steel Plant has achieved a major milestone in product development by successfully producing about 1,100 tonnes of 0.5 mm thick IS 18316 LS Grade Non-Grain Oriented (NGO) Electrical Steel for the first time.”

The innovation is expected to position SAIL as a key domestic supplier of specialised electrical steel, reducing dependence on imports for critical industrial applications. It also aligns with the company’s broader strategy to move up the value chain and contribute to India’s self-reliance in advanced materials manufacturing.

The Bokaro Steel Plant’s success in developing this new grade of steel underscores SAIL’s focus on technology-driven production, quality enhancement, and sustainable industrial growth.
